Shower curtain rail for corner bath?

I have a shower over a corner bath but am struggling to find a rail for a shower curtain.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

    I don't like those corner rails that aren't supported at the corner. We had one that lasted around 2 months. Even with a light curtain fitted there is a huge force on those cheap plastic wall brakets.

    I directed one client to B and Q where for £30 she bought a corner one with a pole to support the corner. It had the option of one or two corners to make it either L or U shaped. However there were only 3 straight runs that ay not have been enough for a corner bath.

    The other option you have is to get a standard straight pole arranged at 45 degrees to the two walls that your bath is between, or whatever angle suits your bath. This can be hung from the ceiling at both ends using standard brakets. If you do this make sure you put some battons above the ceiling for the fixings.

    I have had to fit a canopee above our corner bath in order to get a standard easy to clip curtain rail. It has been in place for around 7 years now and still working good.

    Hi Ozskin, are they easy to fit? I'm a diy novice but I do have a drill and a hook with chain in the ceiling :-). (the hook and chain NOT the drill!)

    I'm looking to put up something more 'attractive' than my current Argos cheapy. I need an 'L' shaped rail as my bath doesn't quite run the full length of the bathroom wall.
